Korean wives Tales

There is no shortage fo advice, especially when you dont need it. We got a lot and I'm sure it was just the tip of the old wives tale 'iceberg'.

Korean ladies must stay inside for 21 days in warm space. Otherwise if you go outside into the cold you will feel cold and sore for the rest of your life.

Must eat seaweed soup for helping the breast milk. No salty, spicy or greasy food.

No shower for at least seven days, including shampoo and tooth paste. This could damage your bones by having water onto the skin too soon.

Cant eat cold food like ice cream because it will damage your teeth.

Too much use of the milk expressing machine will make your nipples black and reduce your milk capacity.

The first weeks milk should be stored and fed to baby later because it makes the babies skin irritated.

The outside milk makes the baby wake up early because it does not have the proper fat. The inside milk takes twenty minutes to reach and the baby can often fall asleep before then.

Cannot swap milk bottles between twins, and you should clean your breast between babies.
